As a SMS follow user, you will only be able to receive updates from accounts you follow.

SMS follow users have a limit to how many updates they can receive daily. If you have hit your limit, you will receive the message “You've reached your daily limit for Tweet notifications.” If you would like to receive more updates just reply with your full name and follow the instructions to create a full Twitter account.

As a SMS follow user, your phone number (or any other personal information) will not be included in the follower list of users you choose to follow.

If you have a Twitter account with a username and profile (not an SMS follow account), any SMS follow user who chooses to follow you will be reflected in your overall follower count.
